What is the difference between GT2 and GT4?
The goal of every Titleist GT driver is to make the ball go further and faster. The GT2 is designed for players who want to maximize their forgiving and steadying capabilities. The GT4 is intended for golfers who like a driver with minimal spin, whereas the GT3 was made for those who prefer flexibility from left to right.
Price of Teewing GT2 and GT4
What if an electric scooter with a battery that was 2.5 times bigger and twice as quick as the Segway Ninebot Max G2 was developed? Someone did. It’s accurate. Then we tested it. It is the GT4 from Teewing, the firm that created the Mars XTR, the fastest scooter to climb our ESG test hill.
We reviewed two amazing Teewing bikes, the GT2 and GT4. The Teewing GT2, which costs about $649, has a single rear motor that can provide 800 watts of nominal power and 1200 watts of peak power. It has a battery that is 30% bigger than the Ninebot Max G2’s, 10.5-inch tubeless tires, and a top speed of 31 miles per hour. [Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review]
With 11-inch tubeless tires, a battery 2.2 times bigger than the Ninebot Max’s, 1500 watts of nominal power from the rear engine and 2400 watts of peak power, and a claimed top speed of 43 miles per hour, the Teewing GT4 specification is even more outrageous. Additionally, both scooters have full hydraulic suspension and touchscreen displays.
Understanding Manufacturer and ESG Speed Specifications for the Teewing GT2 and GT4
It’s critical to differentiate between manufacturer specs and actual testing results when evaluating the speed of electric scooters such as the Teewing GT2 and GT4. The GT2’s stated peak speed of 31 mph and the GT4’s 43.5 mph are examples of manufacturer specs that reflect ideal circumstances frequently attained in controlled situations. A lightweight rider and flat, wind-resistant roads are two examples of this.
However, real-world testing, such as that carried out by ESG (Electric Scooter Guide), offers a more accurate picture of performance in typical settings. For instance, during testing, the GT4’s peak speed was 42.3 mph, whereas the GT2’s was 29.5 mph. These little differences demonstrate how external factors, topography, and rider weight can affect real speed.

Who Are These Scooters For?
For transportation, swift single-motor scooters are a great substitute for vehicles because they are very easy to ride and can get you across town faster than a car. The Teewing GT2 and GT4 suit all users, including commuters, amateurs, and speed enthusiasts on a tight budget.
Teewing GT2 and Teewing GT4 Specs
Top Speed
Regarding speed under $1000, the Teewing GT2 and GT4 were the best of everything under $1,000. All other single and dual-motor scooters in their price range have been surpassed by them. [Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review]
It is entirely unusual that the GT2 can reach a top speed of 29.5 mph for less than $700 in our tests. The GT4 comes next, with a top speed of 42.3 mph and a price tag of just under $1,000.
The Segway GT1, the first single-motor performance scooter, has a top speed of only 34.9 mph and is still $1500, even after a significant discount. The Teewing GT4 is undoubtedly the fastest electric scooter and single-motor performance scooter that costs less than $1000.
Acceleration
The Teewing GT2 and GT4 both have remarkable acceleration times from 0 to 15. With respective times of 4.6 and 2.8 seconds, the GT2 and GT4 fell just over a second short of the $3399 Teewing Mars XTR’s 1.6-second 0 to 15 mph time.
These two are the only two electric scooters under $1000 that we have tested that can even accelerate from 0 to 30 mph.
These two scooters fared better than all other single and multi-motor scooters in their price range between 0 and 15 mph. The 0 to 30 acceleration timings are what really makes the difference because these are the only two single-motor electric scooters that we have tested that even have them out of 89 distinct peak speed runs.
The Teewing GT4 reached 30 mph in a mere 8.5 seconds. That is quicker than the dual-motor GOTRAX GX1 and GX2, and on par with the first Apollo two-motor performance scooter, the Phantom.
Range
On the ESG range test track, the GT2 traveled a respectable 22.7 miles at a speed typical of a twin-motor scooter. [Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review]
The GT4 performed better than any scooter we’ve ever tested at this price or less, with an official ESG mileage of 34.5 kilometers. The absurd thing about these scooters’ range is that, if they weren’t so unbelievably quick, they could have traveled farther. Their massive batteries use a large portion of their electricity for speed.
Braking
It took the GT4 10.4 feet to come to a complete stop from 15 mph, whereas the GT2 took 11.5 feet. Both scooters can stop at an impressive 15 miles per hour and are equipped with mechanical disc brakes on the front and back.
The Teewing GT2 and GT4 have smaller rotors, so a firm grip is required to get the most out of the brakes. However, they are less likely to lock you up or accidentally put you on the handlebars.
Hill Climb
The Teewing GT2’s top speed is more impressive than its ability to climb slopes. The GT2 barely outperformed the similarly priced KQI 3 Pro on our 10% grade test hill, climbing the slope in 15.8 seconds.
But with a time of 9.7 seconds, the GT4 dominated the test hill. The single-motor Segway ZT3 Pro and the dual-motor Varla Pegasus are the only more expensive variants. Since the Segway only out-climbs while in boost mode—which requires three steps to enter and clicks off after 20 seconds—it is given an asterisk.
Ride Quality
These are entirely different scooters. Even though they seem alike, they ride very differently. The GT2’s throttle is incredibly relaxing. The fact that this is a single-motor electric scooter is clear. Despite having a very mild throttle response, this single-motor scooter is fast for the price range and has a fairly high top speed. Consequently, it will be accessible to all. Conversely, the GT4 is a bit of an arm-yanker. For the most part, it feels a lot like a two-motor electric scooter. [Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review]
The tires are another distinction. The GT4’s tires are large and broad. The GT2s are knobbier and slimmer. These tires are more off-road or hybrid. However, they don’t make a lot of noise. They feel decent on the road and are rather quiet. However, throwing this scooter around in the dirt would certainly be a lot of fun.
Although these scooters’ decks aren’t very large for their size, the footrest is enormous and comparatively level. Despite a severe rake angle that increases the stability of both scooters at greater speeds, you end up with a good amount of room.
In addition to being incredibly quiet, the GT4 feels especially solid thanks to its excellent suspension, swing arms, and stem. Its design is simple, yet it feels great nevertheless.
Teewing GT2 and Teewing GT4: Design, Build & Reliability
If you stand back and look at these scooters from a different angle, you can see that some of their construction is less expensive. The swing arms are made of flat pieces of aluminum that have been twisted and attached to other pieces of aluminum. Everything works, despite the fact that none of the components are especially costly.
While the GT2 lacks a key switch, the GT4 does. They both use the touch screen as a one-party gimmick. These screens look good even though they aren’t the brightest. Because the touchscreen buttons are not as bright as the rest of the display, I had some difficulty finding them, but I had no trouble reading the speed or battery meter. We did verify that the screen functions properly under rainy conditions. [Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review]
Both scooters have turn signal switches that look like those on motorcycles, but you can only see them from the back of the scooter. They don’t beep to let you know when they’re on, despite a small, somewhat hidden indicator at the screen’s corner. Both also have a little, beepy horn that protrudes from the dash.
After folding, the stems have a special way to attach to the deck: a strap that wraps around the taillight. These scooters aren’t the most enjoyable to pick up and manage due to the way the stems are constructed, but the construction does give both stems a sturdy, hard feel.
Teewing GT2 and Teewing GT4: Is It Worth It?
Is it obvious that I like riding these scooters? Performance and affordability are key benefits for both of them, but surprisingly, ride quality also proved to be a big plus. Although they both seem older and rely on less expensive parts, the ride quality is superb, particularly on the GT4.
There are trade-offs. Despite receiving twice as quickly as the competition, there are long recharge times, no app, and no swag lighting. Furthermore, the GT2 and GT4 are barely lightweight at 57 and 88 pounds, respectively. Nevertheless, premium EVE batteries make up most of the additional weight by providing speed and range that are unparalleled in their class.
Although both of these scooters are great options, I highly recommend the GT4 if you have the funds and don’t need to drag it upstairs every day. The sheer volume of performance is astonishing. However, the GT2 is probably a better choice for inexperienced riders because it is easier to carry upstairs and has a distinctive combination of speed and smooth throttle response.

Real life Expeience With Teewing GT2 and GT4
The Teewing GT4 was like buckling into a rocket that was pretended to be a scooter. As soon as I pressed the throttle, its strong acceleration gave me the impression that I was in total command of a storm. Stability was maintained even at high speeds because to the broad 11-inch tubeless tires’ solid hold on the road. The GT4 performed well as I up a difficult incline, whereas others could have struggled to reach the top. It felt like gliding since the entire suspension system absorbed every bump. I was informed about my speed and battery level via the touchscreen display, which gave an already thrilling experience a futuristic feel.
Conclusion: Teewing GT2 and GT4 Review
When it comes to electric scooters, the Teewing GT2 and GT4 are revolutionary because they provide remarkable performance, speed, and range at competitive costs. For those looking for unmatched power and excitement, the GT4 is a beast, while the GT2 is best suited for novice riders and those on a tight budget. Although each scooter has its own peculiarities, the whole experience they provide is unparalleled. Teewing’s GT2 and GT4 are ready to take you on a trip that is both thrilling and quick.
